Re: [vintagesynthrepair] hum when running SH101 with power supply

2009-05-26 by Philip

SH-101's are supposed to run on regulated supplies like the Boss PSA...if you run it on the unregulated version (ACA?) or any other unregulated supply it will hum badly.

Hey guys,

I figured you all have run into this problem before and I haven't yet.

I have an SH101 that I've been running off of batteries because when i plug in a power supply it creates a very loud hum. I went in and replaced the two caps that were nearest the power jack with no success.

Any other ideas? I have the schematics now and I'm gonna take a closer look at this supply, but I'd appreciate any inpute.

Thanks,
Johnny
